The following is the error I receive when trying to update Event Espresso to the latest version.

Enabling Maintenance mode…

Updating Plugin Event Espresso (1/1)

Downloading update from …

An error occurred while updating Event Espresso: Download failed. SSL certificate problem, verify that the CA cert is OK. Details: error:14090086:SSL routines:SSL3_GET_SERVER_CERTIFICATE:certificate verify failed.

I have had no other issues downloading/updating Is this an EE error, or something on my side that I’ve missed?

Thanks,
Chuck

Hey Chuck,

I have changed your licence key, can you remove the old one please, save the settings add the new one (from your account page) and resave.

If that does not resolve the issue please let me know.

Hi Chuck,

I ran into something similar when working on an other site. This can be caused by an out of date CA certificate on the server -or- may be due to running on an old Microsoft IIS server. I ended up bypassing the CA cert check so the update would work. This involved hacking the PUE-client file in the event-espresso plugin. Someone else in the forums reported they did the same thing, only they used a simpler method by adding this function to their theme’s functions.php file:

add_action('http_request_args', 'no_ssl_http_request_args', 10, 2);
function no_ssl_http_request_args($args, $url) {
    $args['sslverify'] = false;
    return $args;
}

What I found was I only had to bypass the SSL check that one time. When the next version was ready, the 1-click update worked without any bypassing or errors.
